I like the moveset

How am I just now finding out about this mod. It is without a doubt my new favorite modded character. Great stuff!

once I fully complete her I will make a video and trailer and all that jazz.

Future advice, make a video recording what Shantae can do to make people get her

Oh oops

So you are aware, Shantae’s first color is incorrectly labeled “Defult” instead of “Default.” Great character otherwise!

as of my typing this its on version 1.3 but I've been working on Ftilt trying to make it feel to hit even if you miss the tip please give me feed back if I should mess with it more or not.

I plan on changing Shantaes Uair and Nair. I'm hoping to change the Uair to a scimitar stab straight up but no ideas for Nair if you have any suggestions please tell me. and if there are balences you think need to be changed by specific on what those should be. thanks

cool char if u will balance it correctly it will become a hot one accross community

Also the sour spots like the below reply said could use some work. Feels quite punishing to land because it doesn't really send anyone anywhere and lack of hitstun.

General feedback for this character, I think her aerial hitboxes are a bit unforgiving and requires a bit too much strict spacing. That was when I played the character the week it was released so I'm not sure if anything changed but that was my observation.

Im working on refinements for shantae at the moment but while I do that these are my current ideas for runes to give to shantae please comment what you think should be added for runes

Abyss Runes:
A: Shampoo - more hair damage
B: Silky Cream - fast hair attacks
C: Pistol Tune-Up - higher pistol damage
D: Scimitar Polish - more damage with the scimitar
E:
F:

G: Gain 3 Double Jumps
H:
I:
J:
K:

L: Uspecial will turn shantae into Tinkerbat for a short period of time
M:
N:
O:

Ive added new sound effects from the games many have changed and will be added in the next patch

Thanks for the feed back I'm currently working on fixing her hitboxes cause some of them are still from sandbert . next I plan on adding the I guess clones following her during the dattack and dair while I do that Im definitely going to add the bounce off opponent that it does in the game. cause currently if used of the edge your going to suicide. the idea of the hitboxes on the arm for uair seems cool so ill test multiple hitboxes on it to see how that feels. also these are not my sprites most are ripped directly from pirates curse plus nair is from a fan made sonic mania mod.

I will not comment too much on the specials because I'm assuming they are a wip but I will say one thing that goes a long way is changing the sandbert sound effects. Anything that splits a character from the sandbert default helps and one of the easiest things to do is going through the rivals sounds and use what you like. The second point is that the upspecial is spot on.

Last points:
A black outline would be pretty good to add since it will help visualize her being hurt by special effects like fire and poison.

The CSS portrait could quickly be edited to limit the color palette to accurately depict the colors.gml file. It's always kinda a bummer to see dead pixels that aren't used by color.gml
That or Draw a new sprite which if I could I'd like to help with. 3/3

ftilt sour spot feels too weak. I get that you want to make the tipper more powerful and give more dopamine but making the sour spot have no hitpause feels really off. Other suggestions to make it not feel too weak would be just give it a meager sound effect or hold the attack frame for a little longer. P.S. if this sprite is custom it's really well made.

D-air absolutely should have the Scrouge Mcduck bounce. Going back and checking the source material I noticed that you will bounce off enemies in pirates curse. I think focusing more on the on hit bounce would help give her more interesting air combat.

Bair is so close to being pretty good. What I assume this move is trying to be is something similar to k.rool back air. You just have to adjust the timing to have a bit more anticipation and then have a bigger payoff. 2/3

This one honestly surprised me it's probably my favorite Shantae. Despite new character jank I largely agree with most of the normals. Of course that's probably because it's using the pirates curse moveset but I digress.

I'd actually like to help on this one if possible, if not here's my two cents on some moves.

Uptilt should have a hitbox on her arm. I feel like such a pivotal move in her ground to air combo structure needs a more lenient hitbox. to hit grounded opponents you have to be inside of them for the hitbox to connect and I feel like this could be solved be just putting a hitbox on her arm rising. 1/3
